Packhorse Farm

Packhorse Farm is a relaxed, family-friendly campsite nestled in the heart of Derbyshire, offering far-reaching views across the Peak District countryside.

The site sits near Matlock and provides 53 grass pitches, all with 16-amp electric hook-up, plus two glamping pods for year-round stays. Facilities include a centrally heated toilet block with hot showers, an accessible bathroom, and a baby-changing area.

The site takes a notably eco-conscious approach: toilet block lighting runs on sensors, all wastewater is processed through a reed bed, taps are push-button to reduce waste, and rubbish is handled by a local recycling firm with a zero-to-landfill policy.

A small nature area with a stream is left to grow wild, attracting butterflies, birds, and invertebrates throughout the year.
